this

[DProck]

in on sad, heroic video thread

[superlowtestbra]

The ''pull up, pull up'' at the end is very creepy to listen to indeed.

[Kakal]

wow that must have been an awful situation to be in, pilots kept their composure though even at the very end, sad story op :/

[Perforate]

This is as creepy as the original post:



Brb never flying again.

This guy's channel has more videos like that.

[bemine]

Not sure if I could do the same when faced with dying for sure in 5 minutes. I'd like to think I would, mad respect

[slameeeeedR32]

sweet vids. one thing that really gets my attention is cars and airplanes lol

[AirForceV]

Eerily calm.

RIP.

[Brasmonky]

I know what i'm watching before i fly next time...

[i_love_lifts]

Pilot brah checking in.
Nothing worse than getting the GPWS pull up warning when stalling.
My angus is peppered.

[waitwat]

watched the whole thing wasnt creepy to me (srs)

but can someone tell me why he kept flying around for so far and didnt land? he was controlling it for a while after he lost control

[byoushin]

there's something about japan + 1980s + audio only + the unknown , that makes me shit myself

The plane was originally going to head back to Haneda but as they lost hydraulic fluid they changed their vectors and were going to try and land at a nearby US Navy base instead. Once they lost all the hydraulic fluid, the plane sort of goes up and down and is nearly impossible to control. They managed to control it for a while using differential thrust but that only kept them in the air and left them with no way to really steer the plane. I was reading that they simulated the scenario with 4 other flight teams and none of the teams kept the plane in the air as long as the actual flight team did. The pilots did everything they humanly could.

Its not creepy is you lack empathy. Also:

About 12 minutes after takeoff, as the aircraft reached cruising altitude over Sagami Bay, the rear pressure bulkhead was torn open. The resulting explosive decompression tore the tailfin from the aircraft and severed all four of the aircraft's hydraulic systems. A photograph taken from the ground some time later confirmed that the vertical stabilizer was missing

Holy fuk.. it's so creepy to listen and see what they had been through before they eventually crashed. The fact it's Japanese alone makes it creepy.

I actually got chills at the end of the vid where you can hear them crash.. cot damn. Props to the pilots for keeping it stable for such a long time.

my heart was racing near the end

They lost all hydraulics pressure bro.
You basically lose your flight controls.
They (flight controls) are all electrically controlled, but hydraulically actuated.
If you have No electrics, you can use mechanical backup for pitch and somewhat yawing, and probably or possibly land, but if u have no hydraulics you're fully screwed.

id like to be a pilot someday, but im tryin to be a mechanic atm

Good luck brah.

I still love flying though. I go to the philipines every summer and the flights 22hrs long. Theres absolutely nothing to fear on a plane, and when something goes wrong you'll know.

Crazy. Nothing like the fear of death for motivation. Incredible feat.

[charlieafp]

All of you guys getting moved by the Jap Air 123 crash. THIS VIDEO is much more eery and creepy.

You have to listen to it all the way to the end though.

[ChadDawson]

why didn't he do a crash landing?

there your answer

[the_Yush]

Thanks for ruining my day *******s

[ne12o]

So, 4 peeps survived, but apparently more initially survived but died because the Japanese rescue folks decided to wait overnight to start doing anything... even though the US Airforce or something got to the wreck almost immediately and offered to help, but were rejected and told to stay away.


lolwut.

would you want the Mexican Air Force to send rescue forces to a crash site in New York or even Texas or New Mexico? ?

i like flying but if something does go wrong you can't just pull over lol the feeling of nosediving would be rediculas

My hearbeat skyrocketed
